Hey org big problems today.
I went to start it, Turned the key, starter Kicked then nothing. ALL Lights Dimmed, NO radio, Not ****.
YES I have Headlights though. Dimm dash lights. It wont Begin to start.

It Make this Horrible weird sound behind my Drivers-side kick panel.
Like a Fan moving but grinding on something.

You do need to read the FAQ. LOL I just replaced my starter 6 mos ago. YOU COULD hit the starter with a bar and it would start IF it was a starter problem.

If a dash lights/ Radio all lose power then come back on in 60 seconds what's that?

I would like the opinon of Reputable Nissan Technicans from Maxima.org.

i would have ur battery checked out first since u can get it done free at pepboys. Second, if im not mistaken they can run a diagnostic on the rest of the electrical (starter, alternator) if u can get ur car there. i believe they do this for free. The likely hood of a fuse being blown is low, although, because of the sound you're hearing, maybe one of the relays could be burnt out, or shorting out. If anything else comes to mind i'll post or pm you.
